WINTER - NORTHERN LIGHTS
Winter lasts usually from late November to early April in Finland. Snow cover gathers to a maximum depth of around 60 centimeters. Temperatures are difficult to predict precisely and vary between high and low ground. Temperatures are usually coldest in January and February, dropping to -20 or even -30.
If permanent snow cover is critical for your visit, whether you’re checking out potential locations or planning a shoot, you can refer to us for more information.
Finland has also a polar night when the sun does not come over the horizon during the winter. If you are lucky, the northern lights will treat you with their color show in the sky. These spectacular wilderness locations might be hard to access, but snowmobiles are available to traverse the most challenging landscapes.
Location shooting at nearby exotic surroundings is ensured with spectacular frosty trees, and magical snowy sceneries in winter.
SUMMER - 24 HOURS OF SUNSHINE
The studio location has untouched green forest landscapes, crystal blue lakes, unique rock walls, and fells. It can be a lot warmer than you expect: temperatures around 30°C are not rare these days.
Summertime in Finland starts usually in late May and wrap up in the end of August. There’s no specific rainy season during summer, but occasionally thunderstorms darken the sky especially after the hot season.
Finland is known for the enchanting midnight sun, a natural phenomenon when the sun does not set during midsummer when the Midnight Sun coats the unending landscapes with warmth.
Trees grow a thick coat of leaves, filling all the gaps in the forests. Birds of every sort size and color return from their voyage and wildflowers blossom in the rolling fields, and insects begin their rounds.
